Hosted admin · Quickstart
Goal: with the hub we opened for you, connect a subscription, create an account for your first colleague, and have them open their first session. You only need a computer and a browser — no server of your own.
Below, replace https://hub.example.com with your hub's address (the one sent to you when it was opened).
1. Sign in to the hub
- Open
https://hub.example.com/signinin a browser. - Sign in the way you registered when the hub was opened: scan with WeChat, email, or GitHub.
- After signing in you are in the console. The Admin group in the sidebar (Subscription pool, Service nodes & clients, Users…) is visible to admins only.
2. Install the client
Creating accounts and sending invites uses the fleet command. In a terminal on your own computer:
curl -fsSL https://hub.example.com/install | sh
When it is installed it opens fleet and asks you to sign in once (in a browser or by scanning with your phone, then choose Confirm).
3. Connect a subscription
Sessions use an AI subscription (Claude or ChatGPT): ours, or your own. The hub keeps the credentials for you and shares the quota out per person.
- Open the Subscription pool page in the console. When you use the subscription we provide, it is already there from the day the hub was opened; to connect your own, add it as in Subscriptions and quota.
- When you see the subscription and its 5-hour / 7-day quota, it is connected.
- Grant access: a new user may use no subscription at all by default. After creating a colleague's account, open the Users page, choose them → subscription access, and pick "All subscriptions".
Add as many subscriptions as you have; when one is nearly out of quota, the hub moves on to the next.
4. Create an account for a colleague
The console's Users page → Invite command, or in a terminal:
fleet hub invite <their GitHub username> # make an invite
fleet hub needs your admin credential: after signing in to the hub in a browser, export FLEET_HUB_SESSION=<value> with the value of the ccq_sess cookie (details in the Admin handbook).
- An invite is valid for 7 days and can be used once; when it names a GitHub username, only that person can use it.
- When they sign in with the invite, the hub creates their account on a machine by itself — you do not create it separately.
fleet hub invite --listshows every invite's state;--revoke <id>cancels one that has not been used.
Send them the install line it printed, which looks like:
curl -fsSL https://hub.example.com/i/<invite-code> | sh
From there they follow Member · Quickstart.
5. Check that they got through
- They appear on the console's Users page, with subscription access granted.
- Their first session shows up in the console's session list.
